THE EDITORS PAss.-Hereafter, when
the Texas editor desires to travel for his
health or amusement he will call out ::
"Bring forth my fiery, untamed Arabian
steed 7! aud boy will lead out slab.sided,
emaciated mule, that will have 10 be stuffed
to prevent his bones from cutting the har-
ness-that is, if the editor is so fortunate as
to possess q fiery untamed steed. Hereto.
fore, much to the surprise Of the general
public, the poverty. stricken editor has been
in the habit OF riding in parlor car. AS
soon as the free passes are abolished, he
will have to rely on some other mode OF
transportation. 1t is no disgrace to walk.
We read in the Bible that Enoch walked
with the Lord 800 years, aud Enoch, to his
credit De it said. was no professional pedes-
trian. Walking, moreover, hardens and de-
velops the muscles, as is shown in the
quality and quantity of cheek of the average
walking delegate. Il the Congress of the
United States insists upon it, the journalist
can step off with light heart and an elas-
tic step, that is if he can borrow pair OF
rubbers. If the journalist sees proper. he
can get bicycle in exchange fo- an ad.,
and use it. In short time he will have e1-
perienced more severe falls than the oldest
inhabtant. A man can travel all over the
earth on bicycle, for we once saw it done.
The rider travelled about twenty feet on MS
nose through lot of gravel.

FINANCIAL.
TO THE HOLDERS
Virginia COnSOlS and 1910 Bonds

We are authorized by the council of foreign
bondholders to call the attention of holders of
Virginia consois and 10.40s to the fact that the
English bondholders are endeayoring, through the
instrumentality of the council of foreign bond
holders 10 bring about satisfactory settlement of
the debt of Virginia.
With this object in view the English bond
holders have, to large extent, agreed to pool
their bonds and have authorized the council of
foreign bondholdcrs to act for them in the nego-
tiations which arc about to be had between a COM
mission sent out from London and committee ap-
pointed by the Legislature of Virginia
1t is most desirable that all holders of Virginia
bonds. both ct home and abroad, should unite in
the effort 70 effect an early settlement OF the
State debt. To better accomplish this object, the
council of foreign bondhoders earnestly request
the holders OF Virginia bonds in America to CO.
operate with them and to forward to ourselves
their names and addresses, stating the amount of
bonds held, at as early day as possible.
We will be glad to furnish copies of the plan
adopted by the English bondholders for pooling
their bonds at London, and to give any other in
formation that may be desired.

Suffering WOmanhood.

Too much effort can not be made to bring
to the attention Of suffering womanhood the
great value of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta-
Bile Compound as a remedy for the diseases
of women Such an one is the wife OF Cen
eral Barringer, of Winston, N. G., and we
quote from the Generals letter as follows:
"Dear Mrs. Pinkham Please allow me to
add my testimony to the most excellent
medicinal qualities Of your Vegetable Com
pound. Mrs. Barringer was treated for
several years for what the physician called
Leucorrhea and Prolapsus Uteri COM
bined. sent her to Richmond, Va, where
she remained for six months under the
treatment of an eminent Physician without
any permanent benefit. She was induced
to try your medicine and after reasonable
time commenced to improve and is now
able to attend to her business and consid-
ers herself ,tully relie1ed." General Barrin
ger is the proprietor Of the American Ho-
tel Winston, N. G., and is widely known

Remarkable Shower OF QuaIls.

Talking Of quails, said man from
Nevada few years ago, we had most
remarkable shower of quails in Virginia
City. 1t occurred about four o oclock in the
fall of the year. Where the quail came
from no one could imagine, as ;hey were
Of the large mountain variety and perfect
beauties. The fall Of birds extended over
three-quarters of mile of ground Peo-
pie caught them by putting their hats
over them or by simply picking them up.
Every bod, had quail. About one hum
dred were caught alive and kept in cages
and pens in various parts of the town.
The most probable solution of the phe-
nomenon was that the birds had collected
at some points in the Sierras for the pur-
pose of migrating to the southward, but
had either mistaken their course or had
been blown out of it, and so flew on and
on till they were obliged to come to the
ground through exhaustion.

Concerning Negro Omens.

Among the negroes, says the New Or
leans Times Democrat, the moaning dove
means to save mans soul. To kill one
OF these doves is sign of death, but more
frequently of the death Of child. A buzz
zard or crow on hou setop is believed
by some people to be an invariable sign OF
death or disaster; visit at the door from
a rooster, the approaching visit OF a
friend; the noice of the screeching owl,
or "shivering" owl, is bad omen OF
many interpretations; while, if the COM
mon owl boots on your right, good luck
will follow, but bad luck should he take
up his position on the left and hoot there
from.
